HOMEWOOD – This remarkable country compound is one of the precious few eighteenth and nineteenth century shingle style Colonial Revival estates remaining in Fairfield County. Dating back to 1750, the original pre-Revolutionary War home captivated the attention of prominent New York City banker, George Haven, who purchased the home in 1890 and expanded it significantly including a glorious 50 foot ballroom designed by Elsie de Wolfe, nineteenth century designer, rivaling the best of her work in New York City. Today, after two million dollars of extensive and thoughtful updates over the past decade, Homewood is unparalleled in its historical detail and state of the art features. Total 12,853 square feet on three levels with more than 20 rooms, 13 original fireplaces, eight or more bedrooms, seven full and two half bathrooms; pool house with kitchen, full bathroom, and changing rooms; heated gunite pool and spa; three carriage style garages with porte-cochere; multiple porches and terraces; set on 3.22 manicured and level acres. Highest attention to detail: front to back Great Hall with ingenious ceremonial mahogany staircases; expansive chef's kitchen and butler's pantry; oversized formal dining room with breakfast alcove; plus primary suite with private balcony, multiple closets and two sumptuous bathrooms offering radiant heated floor, steam shower, and jetted tub. Vast third floor with additional bedrooms, artist studios, even a cookbook library, plus elevator to all levels in the home. Additional: nine zones of HVAC; three zones of radiant heating; generator; irrigation system; Glen Gate designed stone terraces, flowering gardens and orchard; all in premier Silver Spring location, just moments to the New York border.
